ARTICA DEORBITING SAIL
ARTICA (Aerodynamic Reentry Technology In CubeSat Applications) is a compact deorbiting system compatible with the CubeSat format and it can be easily assembled with any structure.
The system is based on the deployment of an aerobrake sail (2 sqm) and it is able to accelerate the decay of the orbit and safe destruction in Earth atmosphere of the satellite at the end of the mission, as an effective response to the problem of space debris.
